Deeply savoury, warming and packed with proper curry flavour, this slow-simmered beef and potato curry is exactly the sort of dinner to look forward to on a chilly evening. Long, gentle cooking leaves the beef beautifully tender while the potatoes soak up the rich tomato sauce and all those aromatic spices.

🔥 Our Hot Madras Curry Powder brings bold chilli heat, cumin, coriander and warming aromatics to every mouthful. Give it time to bubble away and the flavours become deeper and richer, producing a hearty curry that is particularly good with rice, flatbreads and a cooling spoonful of yoghurt.
